Leave the Cult of Mediocrity
Manage episode 347678663 series 2737766
We live in a troubled world. Yes, there is much to applaud and progress to be grateful for.
And yet, mediocrity is infecting the majority. And average is infusing the herd.
All true artistry—work that wows the world and gives you and I the permission to become the creative outlaws we secretly long to be—starts with a dysfunctional perception of reality.
...If you’re not being laughed at a lot, you’re probably not creating very much.
...If you’re not attracting criticism, condemnation and chattering cynicism, likely you’re not producing outright magic.
For the very nature of great art is to scare the timid souls who spend the best hours of their finest days watching television in a subdivision.
Yes, it takes strength of character, deep courage and a craving for originality to break free of the seductive beliefs and habits of the herd...
...And yet, working on these qualities are among the finest moves you can make to build your empire [whether an empire of money or fortunes of creativity, productivity, adventure or contribution to society].
[I explain my entire creative and productive process in my #1 bestseller The Everyday Hero Manifesto; definitely get your copy here].
